basics good, but details are now out of date
The basic concepts in this book are good, but all the details are quite out of date. (For example, the statistics on how 61% of internet users are browsing with Netscape Communicator.)
If you buy this book for the root concepts, you will be in good shape. But if you use the information as your guide to the current state of internet selling and choose technology based on it, please keep in mind that you will need more current references.
Useful book for internet home businesses
Useful book if you have online home business. This was recommended to me by a friend who has a successful online business. Easy to read.
An excellent guide!
This book is a gold mine of information, from design tips to marketing strategies. And Dillehay refers to tons of free software that you can use, so it doesn't have to cost you a fortune to get your business going. I will consult this book again and again as I'm building my business.
from Lapidary Journal
"This book has an astonishing amount of usable information, crammed into so few pages! James Dillehay has an amazing talent for getting right to the point, with a minimum of "geekese." . . . The book seems to cover all the basics in a systematic way. It makes the intimidating prospect of even thinking about setting up a Web site a lot easier to approach. Of the entire list of computer instructional manuals I have read, this one would top the list. I would not hesitate to recommend it . . . even to my mom." ~ Lapidary Journal
Excellent
This book is choc full of great information and resources aimed at getting your craft business online and making it work once it's there. Also, all the links in this book go where they are supposed to, so I wasn't frustrated by a load of error 404s. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in selling crafts or artwork online.
